About the russian BA-10, When was the BA-10 used?

Hi all,

At the weapons section of the web the BA-10 russian armored car is show has used by romian army. I can find any more data about it.

Does anyone know, when, in which numbers, etc was it used ?

Thanks in advance.

There is not that much info on the use of captured soviet armored vehicles. Over 100 armored cars of different types were captured in 1941, but I don't think they were used beyond 1942 because of the lack of spare parts. Also, the Romanian Army used the name AB (Autoblindat=armored vehicle) for all armored cars in the inventory, they did not use different names, this is why you will not find the exact numbers.

This article provides the maximum amount of info available on BA-10 in the Romanian Army: http://sturmvogel.orbat.com/romafv.html#Heading10

Thanks for your reply, I am playing a WWII game with Romania and I was thinking how to increase my armor force with a minimum of historically coherence, but it seems hard to justify.

what game?

This one, WinSPww2

And this is the history of my Romanian Battalion

turn based... hex maps

similar to what I play, I thought we play the same game, because in my game there is also talk to give the Romanian Forces some Armored Cars (russian capture).

coincidence

regards
